Brent Spiner confirms it is B4 in the drawer, and then all the other cast look around worried like "should he have said that?" He also says he plays as Data, but isn't in every episode.

SDCC trailer for Star Trek: Picard
- Thread starter ManaByte
- Start date
There are so many things that would be lovely fan service things so see.
For me if I saw Jake Sisko happy, as a older writer with a family and kids I'd do a little tear.
That makes sense. Picard has a whole new crew that need screen time to develop. Seems like they'll be spacing out the rest of the cameos from legacy Star Trek (Worf, Geordi, Crusher, etc) across future seasons as well.
In reality the memories involved with the woman that he sent to her death whom caused him to be interested in the flute in the first place would be too much to bare and he'd never play the thing again.
My guess is no, he won't.
Edit: Riker is in a scene where it turns out the Picard show is all a hologram. I can't wait!
But she survived...then dumped him and transferred to another ship so they'd never be in that situation again.
Star Trek: Picard certainly sounds like an interesting series to me, especially since it's set 20 years after the events in Star Trek Nemesis, if I recall correctly, Nemesis was set during the Voyager era because I think Janeway had a cameo in Nemesis as an Admiral which means Picard is set post-Voyager.
I'm certain Seven of Nine knew about Picard because he was formerly a Borg and I'm certain when Seven was a Borg in Voyager, everything about Picard was already part of the Borg Collective meaning all Borg would have the knowledge of Picard, I'm thinking within the 20 year period between the events of Nemesis to this Picard series, Seven of Nine must've met Picard within that time period, I'm guessing there might be possible flashback scenes showing Seven first meeting Picard.

He's in What We left Behind. Albeit a very brief appearance.
Nemesis is post Voyager.
Reginald Barclay would be the only one from the Enterprise she'd be familiar with going by the events in Voyager. She'd no doubt know Picard as Locutus though.
Lieutenant Barkley of the Pathfinder project was originally a part of the Next Generation crew.
So since we have confirmation of non TNG characters showing up, what DS9 character would you guys want to make am appearance in this show, whether its this season or a future one?
Since Benjamin Sisko is likely off the table because Avery Brooks is done with Trek I think I'd have to say Quark. It'd be neat to see how he's changed over time, as well as Ferengi society. I think he'd probably be one of the easier ones to fit an appearance in naturally as well, he could be selling Picard and his crew something they need for example.

O'Brien seems most likely, given he already has a past relationship with Picard.
I was kinda excluding him and Worf because they were in TNG, probably should have said that, lol.
I think that kind of stuff would probably be better suited for a show that's not focused so much on Picard and the Borg. Though who knows where this show might go after Season 1, assuming it's not a one and done.
I do think we'll start to learn about that stuff in the near future though, now that we are out of prequel territory.
One question I have: In the very brief clip of Seven of Nine she seemed to behave like...a normal human. Yet from what I remember from the show her character was quite robotic, almost Vulcan-like. Obviously this was done on purpose as a result of her being a former Borg drone, but what I can't recall is whether her more human qualities came about during the original run of Voyager or whether her persona as shown in the trailer is implied to be the result of her further mental rehab / development which happened between the time when Voyager ended to the events of this show. Does anyone have any insight into this?
A big part of the show was her becoming more human, so now we are many years removed from that and she's been living in human society. It lines up perfectly.
She was the "Data" of the series in a way, she became more human as it went on. A huge focus in many episodes was her learning some lesson about how to become more un-borg like.
Yeah I remember several episodes dedicated to her re-discovering humanity. What I couldn't remember was whether she had gotten to the point where she behaved like a normal human during the original Voyager run (as much as is portrayed in the 5 second clip we see in this trailer) or whether that happens sometime after Voyager ended and before the events of this series.
I can't recall exactly if she was "normal" during say, the last handful of Voyager episdoes.
She was more normal at the end of the show than when she was introduced, but no, she wasn't this human.
Ok that's in-line with what I remember. I need to re-watch all of Voyager as it's been forever.
I love the idea of her getting to a point where she can act/feel like a normal person again. Like seeing her in that clip made me think "Hell yes she made it out ok!"
I sincerely hope she's not some one-episode cameo guest star. I want her to play a prominent role in things. There's so much they could do with her character, especially when playing off of Picard given their...shared background.
The fact that they chose to highlight her instead of any TNG cameos makes me think she will be a major character.
I did this within the last 5 years or so and I honestly feel like it holds up better than TNG. Before I get hate piled on me too hard, let me break down the whys.
First, TNG has the better highs, and the lows are less low than Voyager, I don't think a single person would disagree with this. TNG however, has the most "that was okay I guess..." episodes. There are almost no stakes and very little continuity in TNG. While Voyager isn't as serial as DS9, it does have a greater continuity from episode to episode.
Also, while TNG's worst episodes aren't as bad, it kind of works to a detriment. Yes, warp 10 lizards is an amazingly stupid concept... but it's a hilariously bad episode. It's harder to get burnt out on Voyager IMO because of that.
But forgetting about the episodic storylines, the characters and how they balance eachother is perfection in TNG. Voyager just did a twist on TNG but it doesn't compare.
Grew up with both, and I'm not disagreeing with what you're saying in principle... I just know I can go through 3-5 episodes of Voyager at a time without too much trouble, but TNG is much harder to binge straight like that. DS9 I didn't get into when I was younger, but me and my wife would tackle as many or more in a row versus Voyager, the serialized nature of DS9 really helps it hold up.
I doubt they'll touch on the DS9 stuff: this feels like the TNG equivalent to the TOS films. And where they had a focus on Kirk's relationship with the Klingons, this looks like it will focus on Picard and the Romulans/Borg.
Worf is a given, I'm sure, so maybe Martok will put in an appearance too. The big question then will be: are they going to stick with the TNG era Klingon look, or update it to Discovery's?
Discovery kind of already went back to the old Klingon design by the second season. I think they'll go with something like that.
Prime, takes place after the events of the final TNG film, nemesis.
Also post-destruction of romulus, which is what caused the JJVerse.
It's the original (prime). The only things that aren't in Prime are the Abrahm movies and some books.
